9. Caring for the implement
Before carrying out cleaning, maintenance or repair work on
the implement, ensure that it is uncoupled from the tractor. Park the
implement on an even, firm, non-slip surface.
The maintenance intervals indicated correspond to normal
operating conditions. If the implement is subjected to heavier
use, these intervals should be reduced accordingly.
Keep the lubrication points clean at all times.
Once maintenance and servicing work is complete, ensure
that all safety devices are refitted.
9.1 Checking the transmission oil level
Always use the same type of lubricant for transmission oil changes (SAE
90).
To change the oil, proceed as follows:
-
Unscrew the plug at the bottom of the transmission unit (fig. 18,
item. 1) and let the oil drain out. Use suitable containers for this
purpose. Screw the plug back in.
-
Now unscrew the second plug on the transmission unit (fig. 18,
item. 2), rotate the axle shaft (fig. 19 item 4) and pour in about 3
litres of oil, using a funnel.
The oil level should come up the plug (fig. 18, item. 3) on the
transmission unit (located under the transmission guard – it
should be removed for checking purposes) and up to the plug on
the axle shaft (fig. 19, item 5)
